What we fit in Powys
- Wide spans. Very wide openings are handled by adding leaves, so width is rarely a limit.
- Wicket doors. A personnel door within a leaf saves sliding the main door for every visit.
- Folding leaves. Where there is little wall either side, folding leaves concertina into a compact stack.
- Insulated options. Leaves can be filled with insulated panels and sealed along their edges to cut heat loss.
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
What this work can involve
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
- Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
- Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
Powered door rules that apply in Powys
Powys is in Wales, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Keeping your site running during the work
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Your questions about sliding and folding industrial doors
Will a sliding door fit our building in Powys?
It needs wall space to the side for the leaves to slide past, or room for folded leaves to stack. We measure this on survey and choose between sliding, telescopic and folding layouts to suit what is there.
How much do sliding or folding industrial doors cost in Powys?
